Athletic Bilbao track Borja Sainz, but winger remains on market | OneFootball

Borja Sainz continues to be monitored by Athletic Bilbao at a time when the Basque club remains attentive to the market as it looks to strengthen its squad for next season.

The Spanish winger, who has attracted interest from several clubs, remains on Athletic’s radar, with the club’s decision-makers exploring alternatives to increase competition on the flanks. For now, there have been no formal developments in negotiations, but the player’s name remains under consideration.

A possible move for Borja Sainz comes as the Bilbao club prepares for the new season. Athletic is already shaping its pre-season schedule and recently added another friendly to the calendar against Burgos, a side that finished seventh in the latest LaLiga Hypermotion campaign with 72 points, narrowly missing out on the promotion play-offs.

This context shows a club already focused on building its squad and planning competitively for 2026/27. Borja Sainz fits that profile of a market opportunity being closely followed, although there is no confirmation of an immediate advance.

For now, the situation remains open, with Athletic Bilbao keeping the player among its possible targets for the summer transfer window.
